Well, sir, you have more patients than 9999999% of the rest of us and maybe the world. Your attention to detail and machining is far above any thing...

Are you trying to machine those potato wedges with carbide tooling when you don't have a rigged enough machine?...

[lugnut]

The only reason I picked on the handle was because I was going to use a 3/8 X 10" NC bolt to make it from. Planed on using the existing treads for...
